[Research progress of cell therapy in hereditary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis].

Abstract excerpt

Hereditary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (hPAP) is a rare interstitial lung disease caused by mutation in CSF2RA/CSF2RB, characterized by the deposition of pulmonary surfactant due to the alveolar macrophage dysfunction. The whole lung lavage can effectively alleviate the symptoms but is associated with potential complications. Cell therapy is a novel approach with advances that provide a new therapeutic...
